While the Evans family was caught in an emotional confrontation at the infirmary, Kisha had already made her way to meet the newcomers in her territory. Before that, she had sent the Winters to train alongside those who had remained at the hidden base—men who never had the chance to train under her and Duke back at HOPE Base.
The hidden base members had a lot of catching up to do, and it showed. As soon as the two groups began their training session, the Winters' men from HOPE Base effortlessly dominated their counterparts. The difference in skill was undeniable, and frustration rippled through the hidden base group as they groaned and struggled to get back on their feet.
"Ugh! How did the gap get this big in just a month? Is this the difference between levels?" one of the men from the hidden base grumbled as he pushed himself up from the ground after being tossed around like a ragdoll.
His opponent from HOPE Base smirked. "Well, you're still Level 0. I'm already Level 1."
